 CHANGSHA, July 5 (Xinhua) -- A section of a highway running near a major river in central China's Hunan Province caved in early Thursday, engulfing 1 a passing vehicle and killing 2 at least one person aboard.


The cave-in, near the Poly International Plaza 3 along the central section of Xiangjiang Road in the provincial 4 capital Changsha, created a 30-square-meter pit on the road.
The depth of the pit was not immediately known, said a rescuer with the local fire brigade. "But we cannot see the bottom of the pit with naked eye."He said the pit engulfed 5 a passing car and at least one person on board died at the scene.
Authorities did not describe the ill-fated car or identify the victim. But an unnamed witness said it was likely a BMW carrying three people.
The cave-in site was close to the Xiangjiang River, a major tributary 6 of the Yangtze, China's longest waterway.
It was unclear what caused the accident.
The local traffic police had closed the road following the accident. Rescue work continued Thursday morning.
